Finding Intensional Knowledge of Distance-Based Outliers

Summary: Introduces intensional knowledge for distance-based outliers, characterizing strongest/weak outliers with structural explanations beyond mere detection. Optimizes discovery via path and semi-lattice sharing, yielding substantial I/O and runtime savings over naive and semi-naive methods. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
